Oh Canada

So here is my beef. I was glued to the tv for the olympics and I was really excited about Canada doing so well. During the closing ceremonies last night, i was a little miffed. It's no wonder how the rest of the world thinks of canada, we play up the stereotype ourselves. We are our own worst enemy. During the ceremony which featured a presentation for the upcoming 2010 Vancouver Olympics, a man dressed in Maple leaf plaid pyjama bottoms comes out on a snow machine with an ogger to go ice fishing, catches a fish and all this dudes with snow are all excited. They start building this thing that looks like an igloo and it turns out to be that dude that is the logo for the olympics. Then they showed a commercial highlighting the theme... COME PLAY WITH US. In the commercial, there are 4 children... an oriential child, a young black girl, and young boy in a wheel chair that is skiing and throwing snowballs at the black girl and then another child which we can only assume, must be gay. Then in the commercial, there is a polar bear playing in the snow. Oh Canada!!!
